Hi @Elsa

I have one. It’s definitely a easy one...

     MARY’S LAMB.

Mary had a little lamb,

   Its fleece was white as snow,

And every where that Mary went

   The lamb was sure to go ;

He followed her to school one day—

   That was against the rule,

It made the children laugh and play,

   To see a lamb at school.

And so the Teacher turned him out,

   But still he lingered near,

And waited patiently about,

   Till Mary did appear ;

And then he ran to her, and laid

   His head upon her arm,

As if he said—‘ I’m not afraid—

   You’ll keep me from all harm.’

‘ What makes the lamb love Mary so ?’

   The eager children cry—

‘ O, Mary loves the lamb, you know,’

   The Teacher did reply ;—

‘ And you each gentle animal

   In confidence may bind,

And make them follow at your call,

   If you are always kind.’

Thanks for taking me back to my childhood too. 💕🤗

Happy MotherGoose Day to all community members. I was reading through some of the posts and amazed at the slight differences in the rhymes.

I was just as surprised @greddycandy. You'd think they would have one version and stayed with it.

I love the story of humpty dumpty

froogal

A really thought provoking topic!

Here's my French memory:

Chorus:

Sur le Pont d'Avignon

L'on y danse, l'on y danse

Sur le Pont d'Avignon

L'on y danse tous en rond

1st verse:

Les beaux messieurs font comme ça

Et puis encore comme ça

2nd verse:

Les belles dames font comme ça

Et puis encore comme ça

3rd verse:

Les filles font comme ça

Et puis encore comme ça

4th verse:

Les musiciens font comme ça

Et puis encore comme ça

Secondly - "Alouette, Gentille Alouette" comes to my mind. Yet it is not the kindest.
